If you plan to take I-10 to the border, note that Diesel is 26 cents cheaper at
Ehrenberg Flying J than it is at Thousand Palms. I would just get enough to take me to the border if I were you!

Anyone familar with driving 60 AZ.from Apache Junction to Show Low?? It would be a new way to 191.

Mario, the 4.019 price is for trucks. AZ makes them pay 8 cents more than cars
and RVs. Theoretically anything over 26,000 pounds pays the truck rate, but in practice they give all RVs the car rate. Be sure to pay inside, and say "RV on pump ###" so you 'only' pay 3.939.

Good fuel price but no dump..so make sure you empty your tanks elsewhere.

Before someone notes it, I should point out that both the 3.939 and 4.019 prices
are "cash" prices, and use of a credit card adds 6 cents per gallon, so the price on the pump in the truck section at Ehrenberg will say 4.079 today. BUT, if you have a Flying J RV rewards card, credit card price is same as cash, with another cent per gallon discount. The Flying J page previously linked at http://www.flyingj.com/fuel/diesel_CF.cfm gives truck cash prices. If you use the "gasoline" page at http://www.flyingj.com/fuel/gasoline_CF.cfm you will see that it also includes "Car/RV Diesel" and the RV price will be correct for states like Oregon and Arizona where cars/rvs and trucks are priced differently. The exact method I use is: Swipe Flying J card at truck pump. Choose Pay Inside Press Enter on N/A items like unit number and hub odometer Answer state and license number if prompted Pump fuel Go inside and offer both FJ card and (non-VISA) credit card, saying "RV on pump ###, already pumped." Try not to have a heart attack when seeing the bottom line In AZ, the slip will show the total at the credit truck price, then a 6 cent per gallon cash deduction, then an 8 cent per gallon "lightweight" deduction, then a 1 cent per gallon FJ Rewards deduction.

Spring Trip
Mario,
Highway 60from Apache Jct. to Globe is a fairlyeasy trip just some gradual climbs especially out of Superiorto Globe.
Salt River Canyon (US 60 to Show Low) is much more friendly going north from Globe to Show Low than goingsouth.
Lots of long uphill grades and shear cliffs, but take your time, pull out once in awhileand enjoy the scenery.Of course Show Low down toI 40is a relaxingdrive.
I just wish we were following you.
